Today’s feature is a well-researched Historical Fiction with flare, Mistress Suffragette by Diana Forbes.
“Mistress Suffragette, is set in the Gilded Age of late nineteenth-century New England, when women were bound by strict rules of conduct and conformity. As the book’s charming, willful protagonist becomes involved in the budding Suffrage Movement, modern readers gain insight into the early fight for women’s rights.” —Blog Critics
“Diana Forbes is a New Yorker who writes historical fiction with gusto. She has clearly researched the era, adding details about the styles, current events, medicines and other small but enjoyable touches. But her central focus is on leading her heroine through the bends and switchbacks of a well-devised plot.” -READER
